Ludao North Station, light rain.

The train passes through the sparse rain curtain and stops precisely next to the predetermined platform.

The doors opened, and passengers carrying bags and backpacks rushed out, each spreading out and merging into the station and disappearing.

Holding a notebook in her left hand and a restless Ma Xiaozhi in her right hand, Tang Jiayi walked out of the business car, followed by a string of entourage.

The mountain dwelling is leisurely, but the mundane things are entangled, because she has saved up a lot of work to deal with, she has to interrupt her vacation and return to Egret Island with her eldest daughter.

The day is not coincidental, the scheduled return date just hit the typhoon, No. 9 typhoon "Nesat", No. 10 typhoon "Haitang" hit one after another, in Yurong City, 300 miles away, landed, double typhoon cloud system brought a lot of rain, resulting in more than 200 counties and cities in the eastern region of the torrential rain and flood disaster, Ludao is unfortunately also among them.

After two consecutive days of heavy rain, the airport and high-speed rail station were closed one after another, Tang Jiayi and his entourage had to take the high-speed rail to the neighboring city, rest for two nights, and wait until the rain slowed down a little before the high-speed rail resumed traffic before getting on the train and returning.

Connecting with Pan Yicong, a personal assistant waiting outside the turnstile, everyone boarded the bus, left the station with a white roof, and drove down the street towards the horse house in the southwest.

The typhoon has dissipated, but the damage it has caused cannot be restored immediately.

From time to time, fallen trees and scattered broken branches appeared on both sides of the road, which made Tang Jiayi worry about the disaster. Turning his head to look at his personal assistant, "Shallot, do you have any updates on the damage?" ”

The latter had already prepared, and immediately nodded and said: "The situation is not bad, several surrounding counties and cities have been affected by floods, and the economic losses are said to be hundreds of millions. However, the owners of the reservoir on our side are relatively acquainted, and the local authorities have also transferred the affected people in a timely manner, and there have been no reports of casualties so far. ”

"That's good, wait for you to contact the relevant departments for me and see if there is anything I need help with. What about us?"

"I made a note of it," the female assistant hurriedly responded, and then reported: "Our own losses are mainly in the agriculture and animal husbandry sector, Jiajing Agriculture and Animal Husbandry reported that 16 houses were destroyed by flooding, 330 acres of farmland were destroyed, and 57 acres of fish ponds were washed away. The losses reported by other companies are very minor, and they are all small things such as lodging of landscape trees and broken glass, so I will not go into details. ”

"Very good," Tang Jiayi nodded with relief, "This time, my husband and I are not on Egret Island, and it is all up to everyone's own efforts to survive the natural disaster." When he returns, there will definitely be an official statement. ”

Pan Yicong's face flashed with joy, and the so-called official statement is naturally a salary increase and promotion notification reward. With the boss's personal assurance, she suddenly felt full of energy, and the hard work and fatigue of running around in the wind and rain in the past few days was nothing.

After a pause, Tang Jiayi asked again: "By the way, shallots, what about the zoo, are the animals all right?"

The latter had already prepared and immediately responded: "The situation is fine, only a few trees have fallen down, the water level in the lake is too high, the animals are still fine, and all kinds of electronic equipment have also withstood the test." Now the park is organizing manpower to carry out drainage and restoration, indicating that the park can be officially opened at any time. ”

The zoo they refer to refers to the wildlife park located near Jingkou Rock Mountain in the southern part of Haicang District.

Because of the small area, insufficient facilities, remote location, poor management, small number of animal species and other reasons, the first safari park in the province was only beautiful for two or three years, and it fell into a dilemma after the pneumonia epidemic in 03.

Seeing that the business situation was getting worse and worse, the original boss threw it to the creditor to get out, and the funds and abilities of the receiver were also average, and he failed to bring the zoo out of the quagmire. Later, he was even more broken, and became a "laid-back" on the grounds of poor management, and defaulted on land rent for many years. Eventually, the local management committee took him to court in 14 years, demanding rent arrears and fines for breach of contract, as well as rescinding the contract and repossessing the land.

The facts are clear and the evidence is conclusive, so it is clear that such a lawsuit is not difficult to hear. At the beginning of the 15th, the Ludao Intermediate People's Court made a judgment, requiring the park to compensate more than 1,700 yuan in rent and fines, and ordered to move out of the vacant land before the end of the year.

When the news was reported, it immediately aroused heated discussions among the local people. The location of the zoo is biased, but it is barely located on the edge of the city, seeing that the zoo that has been open for more than ten years in front of the house is going to be revoked and moved, and if you want to take your children to see the animals in the future, you can only go to the old and small Zhongshan Park Zoo on the island.

When it was, someone with good deeds had a whim, sent a scarf to Atletico Madrid, and asked him to take action to protect the zoo, and passers-by saw it and responded with praise and response.

At that time, Atletico Madrid had become a father, and he also felt that moving the zoo was not conducive to children getting close to animals and nature, so he responded to the call and decided to participate. After negotiation and negotiation, the former took away the "core assets" and related debts such as the spotted donkey and the white tiger, and went to Xiang'an Lion's Head Mountain to build a new park, and then sold the facilities and remaining animals in the Jingkou Park to Atletico Madrid, and the latter specially instructed its Jiajing Nature Foundation to register the Ludao Zoo Company and operate this asset with full authority.

The new company renewed the land lease contract with the Land Bureau, and then invested in the demolition and renovation of the park's hardware facilities, and the Haicang Zoo was closed to guests.

This level is two and a half years.

The new wildlife park located in Xiang'an Lion's Head Mountain was officially opened on the National Day last year, but there has been no news of the opening of the Jingkou Old Park.

In fact, the expansion of the park and the installation of equipment have been completed, albeit slowly. The zoo has successively introduced a number of popular animal filling houses from home and abroad, and even the panda pavilion, which had been vacant for several years and could only make up for red pandas, rented a pair of real giant pandas.

There are only a dozen or so zoos abroad that have giant pandas on long-term lease, and it is up to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to decide who to borrow or not. In contrast, it is much easier for domestic zoos to borrow pandas, and nearly 70 large zoos across the country have giant pandas on display. Too scattered and diluted professional veterinary resources, coupled with the shortage of funds in some local zoos, can easily lead to malnutrition, stereotypical reactions, illness and injury and even death of pandas, and every exposure will trigger intensive condemnation on the Internet. Xinhaicang Zoo has put forward all kinds of favorable conditions, and the Giant Panda Center is not tempted.

When the panda arrived, the zoo did not hype its opening, apparently with other plans.

On the one hand, it is because the Jiazi Foundation has abundant funds and is not in a hurry to make money, and on the other hand, it is also related to Atletico Madrid's positioning of the new zoo.

Atletico Madrid summed up the successful experience of "fruit trees online" and "pig live broadcast", and referred to the popular trends of "cloud sucking cats" and "cloud raising pandas", and planned to build it into a cloud zoo that does not accept offline tourists.

Xinhaicang Zoo will completely abandon the traditional number of visitors to visit the park, and replace it with hundreds of panoramic cameras, remote-controlled aerial cameras, and animal cameras distributed throughout the park. No matter where they are, visitors can view the scene of the park through the Internet, so it is called "Cloud Zoo".

Online zoos don't need to be opened, just open the network and let the service go online. However, this year, they like to hold a ceremony to highlight the formality, and Ludong Company is not exempt from vulgarity, or actively or passively invited many domestic and foreign celebrities and local officials, planning to hold the opening ceremony at the end of July. When Tang Jiayi came back this time, one of her official duties was to attend this event.

Unfortunately, the typhoon hit and the torrential rain suddenly disrupted the schedules of all participants, and the event had to be postponed temporarily.

Shaking her head slightly, Tang Jiayi said calmly: "This is not in a hurry, wait for the weather to improve in a few days." ”

With that, she opened her laptop, "I'll take a look at the situation first." ”

A drizzle of rain appeared on the mirror-like screen, the rain hit the plantains, the grass blades were wet and sticky, and there was not a single animal in sight, only a low and sparse beast roar faintly echoing, which became more and more gloomy.

Hearing the sound of animals, Ma Xiaozhi tilted her head to look at the screen, staring wide-eyed and looking carefully, but found nothing. I had to turn my hair and ask, "Mom, why are the animals gone?"

Reaching out to smooth her daughter's little eyebrows, Tang Jiayi smiled and comforted: "It's all here, mom will find it for you." ”

Actually, she doesn't know where the animals are, but she has tools to help, but it's not false at all. Reaching out and clicking on the "Display Name" button, a green line appears on the screen, outlining the outline of a leopard lying on a branch, with the name tag "Leopard: Flowey" on its head.

In addition to the regular version with a regular night vision camera, some panoramic cameras are equipped with infrared scanning and motion tracking modules that can quickly identify animals and track their movements. The footage they record is processed and converted into animal motion capture files for film and television effects and game production. Due to principle limitations, these devices are not good at finding lurking femme fatales and lizards, but they are handy against large warm-blooded animals.

Seeing the leopard's name, he happily shouted at the screen: "Ah! It's Huahua! Mom, it's Huahua!"

Tang Jiayi patted her daughter, "Don't scream, no matter how loud you scream, it can't hear or see." ”

"Oh," the little man reacted, turning and throwing himself into his mother's arms, "Mommy, Mommy, I'm going to turn on the Spy-robo-Spy, and I'll be able to see it with the Spy-robo-Spy-C-on-the-m-o-pooh." ”

"Wait, mom will help you ask," Tang Jiayi didn't rush to agree, turned her head and asked the assistant, "Can it be used on rainy days?"

"Yes," Pan Yicong said decisively, no problem, "The machines are all waterproof, and they are also useful for patrolling the garden on rainy days." ”

"That's good," Ms. Tang nodded slightly, her finger clicked on the "Blindfold Villain" icon on the screen, and after the second confirmation, the screen suddenly changed, the angle of view was reduced to 20 centimeters, and the surrounding area became a somewhat dim passage.

The so-called robot spies are actually small robots controlled by video remotes, which have different animal shapes, and can better penetrate the herd and take first-hand information.

As early as 2007, the British BBC's documentary department used animal cameras to infiltrate the animals and fish, producing the famous "snooping/espionage" series of documentaries, and "Wilderness Spy" released at the beginning of the year is the culmination of camouflage photography techniques.

Inspired by this, Atletico instructed engineers at the Bee Research Institute to help create a similar remote-controlled animal camera. Bee has a four-legged walking platform and bionic AI technology, and the chip technology is also world-class, and the performance of the "domestic animal spy" is not inferior to that of its British counterparts, and it has performed well for many days.

In order to test the usability of the function, the cloud zoo website was launched on a trial basis a few days ago, and Ma Xiaozhi and her mother were the first batch of experiencers. Now seeing the familiar "spy vision", the little girl immediately became excited and shouted urgently: "Mom, I'm coming, I'm coming!"

Tang Jiayi had no choice, raised her hand and let her daughter operate it herself. Under the control of the little one, the "spy" quickly climbed out of the small hole and came to the drizzling woodland, revealing a small leopard with a height of 18 centimeters at the shoulder. Turning its head to look in the direction, it ran straight towards the lying "Flowey".

Thanks to its innocent appearance, the leopard camera successfully dispelled the latter's vigilance, and successfully made it to the tree where it was, and then made a mistake.

After all, artificial claws are not genuine, and the front paws flutter desperately, but they are never able to climb the tree. The little girl behind the screen was so anxious that she turned around, but unfortunately this time Mother Tang had no choice, so she had to send the little leopard back to the artificial cave to charge and standby, and then switch her field of vision and drill into the panda pavilion.

Giant pandas are afraid of heat and cold, in order to let panda couples spend the summer on Egret Island smoothly, the park specially built a 3,000 square meters of film greenhouse, the vent is equipped with air conditioning and noise reduction and dust removal equipment, the interior has made a careful environmental enrichment, plus a variety of alpine bamboo provided by the surrounding planting base, the living environment is very close to the alpine habitat.

Enrichment refers to increasing the richness of the animal's living environment, by increasing the richness and complexity of the environment, food, community quantity, smell, toys and other contents, simulating the wild living environment as much as possible, so as to reduce the inappropriateness of captive animals, prevent or alleviate the stereotypical behavior of animals, and keep them physically and mentally healthy.

The so-called stereotyped behavior refers to simple behaviors that are purposeless, ineffective, and repetitive, including pacing back and forth, shaking the head repeatedly, licking hands frequently, and so on. This was originally a typical symptom of autism in humans, but it was later discovered that captive animals were also victims. Caged tigers pacing repeatedly, bears in the circle climbing walls every day, and pandas seemingly funny frequent standing, repeatedly sticking out their tongues, and shaking their legs may all be stereotyped behaviors.

The solution to stereotyped behaviors is to expand the activity area and enrich it, so that animals have something to do every day and are no longer boring. At the same time, removing the iron cage, restraining visitors, and reducing noise and flash can also increase the sense of safety of the animals, which in turn has a positive effect on physical and mental health. This is also the theoretical basis for Atletico Madrid's cloud zoo, due to reality, it is impossible to release all the animals into the wild for the time being, so it can only retreat to the next best thing and minimize human interference.

Although this reduces ticket revenue, it can make money all over the world through value-added services, and the imagination is obviously much larger. What he wants to do now is to make the Xinhaicang Zoo a model project, and then sell it to those zoos that are not bad for money and at the same time value economic benefits.
